Notice my nice rock-scraped bush?
If I roll, you know it's Plomosa. Am I going to need a compass or a GPS to find this years coordinates?
Guy I worked for, friends for life is at the Pow Wow show at the Quartzsite Improvement Association building, North side of I-10 at 235 Ironwood St for a Mineral Show. He's hauling about 5 tons of rocks, er... minerals down there to sell.
POW WOW
So I've got a lot of friends in low places down there this year. Need to light a fire under my butt to overcome some stationary inertia and get going.
What is this rock scraped bush you refer to, did you fall on your head and shed some hair off your noggin? - NinerBikesExplorer

You'll be seeing more than a couple of MHs. The big amateur radio shindig is going on all week there. Hundreds of RVs and just as many huge antenna being constructed. They have parties, seminars. All you could ever imagine about electronics and communications.
Directions - Snowman9000ExplorerI'll be there later today. Just look for an average looking average sized white guy. That will be me.
- NinerBikesExplorerMy cats will miss me for a bit, no more hot lap or warm furniture for them to sleep on, but I need to get on the road to get down to the Q. Long haul on the I-10, but hey, diesel sure is cheap this year, eh?
Jefe, just look for the Dutch Boy flagpole like guy with the wide "O" oval spare tire attached above his belt. - Snowman9000ExplorerWe scouted around and realized that with no toad, we had to be in one of the places right by the big tent. So we are dry camping at Rice Ranch. $7/night plus tax for a couple of nights. Seems good enough for this part of the mission. Then we expect to move out to the desert for a couple of days of relaxation.
- DAS26milesExplorer IISomething came up and we couldn't get on the road today. Hope to catch the last few days.

- Snowman9000ExplorerQuestion: It looks to me like there is BLM camping right behind the south fence at Rice Ranch. Yes/no?
- MrWizardModeratorbunch of people in there
but i haven't figured out if that is the far north end of La Posas west
or the far east end of scaddan wash
which ever it is
its an easy walk across to the big tent
but not so short to drive out and around
